And Here It Is

My latest finished object (believe me, those are a rare species these days coming from me):




I've called it "Blood Orange" because the colours remind me of the fruit.  (Obviously.  I haven't had my tea yet this morning.)

Pre-picture Post!

This one's mainly to remind me that I need to post pictures of my latest FO.  It's 198 Yards Of Heaven done in some miscellaneous yarn that looks suspiciously like Patons SWS.

This time I've remembered to take a picture of it before I block it (but I still forgot to get one while it was still dry).  Hopefully by tomorrow night it'll be fully dry and I can complete this post!

Won't Let Go

I think my camera's dying.  Lately it uses way more battery power than when I first got it.  I'll put new ones in and 10 shots later they're dead.  And it won't let me download pictures from my memory card to the computer anymore.

So much for Project 365.

I miss my camera.

Making Time To Block

I'd like to block this scarf, but it's so cold outside that I have to wear it.







Maybe I'll block it while I'm at work tonight.

Things Are Looking Up

I got rehired as a cashier at that last place.  Ok, it's Walmart.  It's only covering another employee on maternity leave, but it's a job!

Like everyone else (or so it seems), I've decided to do project 365.  But not here.  My boyfriend set up another blog so we can both use it.  Hopefully I'll make it.  Last year I lasted three days.

I'm also participating in a test-knit.  I've never done one before, but I figured hey, I have the yarn (or at least a substitute) and not too many WIPs.

Now time to get ready for a marathon band rehearsal!

Time To Hope

My part-time seasonal job is over.  I did have an interview a couple Wednesdays ago, but I won't hear from them either way until this coming week.  I really hope I get it.

I'm going on a yarn diet until November.  I'm sure I have enough to keep me occupied until then.  I mean, there is that afghan I want to knit!

Not much else is going on ... I'm just casting on projects way sooner than I should.  I've only got five WIPs so far.  I've a ways to go.
